Katy Topham

Katy performs locally and around Ontario, has performed at several festivals and was among those selected out of hundreds of applicants, for the CCMA Songwriters Showcase in 2012. Katy has performed in many showcases and festivals such as: the Virtual Diamonds In The Rough Showcase in 2020 and LIVE Diamonds In The Rough Showcase 2023, HarmoniaFest 2023, and The All Women's Music Bluejay Sessions at the Calgary CCMAs 2022. Most recently Katy and her band were the headliners at Grand River Pride Festival in Galt Ontario. 

Katy's business experience goes far beyond making music! With a marketing and advertising degree from Conestoga College, Katy has held Marketing, Sales and Events positions at a few businesses throughout our tri-city area: working for Maryhill and Innerkip Golf courses as head of sales and events, and even creating a one-of-a-kind position of "Outside Sales and Outside Events" at Descendants Beer & Beverage Co. in DTK. Katy has also previously volunteered on local boards such as The Sports for Special Athletes Committee and The Oktoberfest Committee and has also assisted with the DTK Summerlights Festival many years in a row. 

"Born and raised in KW, I have a deep love for this city and what we can offer our residents. I strive to be a part of the scene to help provide music, positivity and foster community through local events. I'm honoured to be a part of the Bestival Team and looking forward to growing with you all!" - Katy
